It seems as though I have returned at a fitting time.

Something so precarious.

No matter then. I will return to work posthaste.

It seems I must reintroduce myself. Very well, my name is Cyrus. I have been the Ethics teacher here, and I trust I remain in that position. I was called away urgently for many months and will not speak more on it.

I demand those in my class pay attention and do the work that is assigned to them. This ought not be an extraordinary thing; in fact it ought to be expected. Yet as with much, this has fallen by the wayside.

For you to reconsider the world and what you know of it--that is my aim. What surrounds us and fills our lives often passes us by for the commonality of it. For us to act ethically is for us to be thoughtful of those things around us and their impact on the greater whole of existance.

I urge critical thinking, and for those in my class to be able to support your beliefs. Do not be surprised if you are unable to do so immediately. You have not spared thought for such things before, and as such you may find it difficult.

Yet it is ultimately rewarding, for therein lies justice itself.

And justice is something that must be upheld. I am certain that you have seen why.

Did you ever think that maybe people don't listen to you cause you coulda said the same thing in about 500 less words?

[will_be_god]

I say exactly what will accomplish my thoughts.

[cupofbatnoodles]

Yeah well. Thanks for reminding me to update my filters.

[will_be_god]

Then it will be your loss.

[cupofbatnoodles]

Nah I think not having to listen to the same 180 words or so just worded a little differently is gonna save me some time.

[will_be_god]

Very well. Once again, it is your loss.
